The condition of your respiratory muscles influences how well you can breathe. The stronger your diaphragm is, the easier you can breathe, you need less oxygen during exercise and your heart rate drops. Strong breathing muscles benefit everyone. Endurance, well-being and general health improve. To achieve this higher quality of life, perform breathing training with the POWERbreathe Plus with High Resistance (HW). This high resistance device puts an enormous strain on your breathing muscles. It is only recommended for those who have reached the highest load setting with a medium resistance device. POWERbreathe strength training basics - Just as you use weights to strengthen your arm muscles, you train with the POWERbreathe by inhaling against a variable resistance to strengthen your breathing muscles. The diaphragm and rib muscles become stronger and more enduring. Strengthen your diaphragm - Breathing training with the POWERbreathe Plus (HW) focuses on strengthening your diaphragm and not your lungs. This is because your lungs are a pair of spongy, air-filled organs, not muscles, and therefore cannot be strengthened. This machine is very challenging and only suitable for people who are very fit and have reached the highest level of the machine with medium resistance. This device is not suitable for people with breathing problems. If you suffer from a condition such as COPD or asthma, we recommend the Medic Plus or a light resistance device.

Wählen Sie eher ein Gerät mit geringerem Widerstandsbereich. Dies lässt sich besser einstellen, da die Schritte von Stufe zu Stufe kleiner sind. Beispiel: Ausdauersportler, 45 Jahre, 176 cm gross,74 kg schwer, trainiert im Bereich von 70 bis 85 cm H2O. Schwimmerin, 35 Jahre, 170 cm gross, 65 kg schwer, trainiert im Bereich 55 bis 70 cm H2O.
